SALEM -- Glencoe senior Matt Fields returned the opening kickoff 89 yards for a touchdown and the Crimson Tide never looked back in a 49-34 upset victory over No. 11 West Salem in the first round of the Class 6A state playoffs Friday.

That prediction proved prophetic, as senior running back Kainoa Hanchett ran for 214 yards and three touchdowns on 36 carries, while junior Anthony Lambert added 140 yards and three touchdowns on just 11 carries.

“These guys felt bad and hurt after the Tualatin game, and they knew they could’ve stepped it up,” Jones said. “And they did. We had nothing to lose and everything to gain. We came out and played -- that’s the toughness and courage they’ve got in their gut.”

West Salem junior quarterback Cade Smith tried his best to keep pace, throwing for 244 yards and four touchdowns, adding 114 yards and a touchdown on the ground, but it wasn’t enough.

With the victory, No. 22 Glencoe advances to the second round of the state playoffs for the first time since rejoining the 6A classification in 2010. The Crimson Tide will play No. 6 Clackamas next Friday.

"This is a different team than we've seen all year," Jones said. "These guys came to play. I told them, 'I haven't seen this all year.' But these are gamers, these are tough kids. Boy, they put it together tonight."
